Random Partitioner does not check if tokens are outside of its range
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-3880
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3880
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 1.0.7, 0.7.6
Reporter: Marcel Steinbach
Priority: Minor
Setting up a ring where the tokens are outside RP's token range leads to an
unbalanced cluster. The partitioner still reports equally distributed ownership
since it calculates ownership only with the _distances_ of the tokens in
relation to the maximum token.
E.g. maximum token = 15
token1 = 5
token2 = 10
token3 = 15
token4 = 20
ownership4 = (token4 - token3) / maximum_token = 5 / 15 = 1/3
So token4 claims to own 33.33% of the ring but is not responsible for any
primary replicas.
